A pleasant full day boat/ship trip to the largest of the islands; Buyukada, starts from Galata Bridge, which acts as a link between the two parts of the city, old Istanbul on one side, new Istanbul (Galata and Beyoglu) on the other side.

With their lovely pine tree forests summer houses, gardens, sea-food restaurants and horse carriages and donkeys as the only transportation they are attractive places. Swimming and suntanning is possible. Lunch in one of the most famous sea-food restaurant. Transfer to the town by boat/ship in the afternoon.
